Mac And Cheese




  I have made this recipe a million times before but I always thought it is too simple to share. In the last few months since my daughter Lily arrived I have made it what it seems like every week. She loves cheese and when I don't know what to cook for her this is the safest options. Is ready in half an hour and tastes amazing. I personally think it is better the next day so make sure you make enough to last you for a couple of days.

   - 250 g macaroni
   - 600 ml milk
   - 40 g butter
   -  40 g plain flour
   - 250 g cheddar cheese
   - optional I add cooked bacon to my macaroni

   Cook the macaroni in boiling salted water for 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Melt the butter in a saucepan then add the flour mixing well until it forms a soft dough. Add the milk gradually, a little at a time and cook for 10-15 minutes until thickened and smooth.

Remove the sauce from the hob add in 175 g of the cheddar cheese  and mix until the cheese is
melted.



Add the macaroni to the sauce and mix well. Transfer to a ovenproof dish.



Sprinkle the rest of the cheese on top, place under a hot grill and cook until the cheese in slightly brown and bubbling.





ENJOY!!!
